Canes @ Sabres

Carolina Hurricanes (27-24-5) vs. Buffalo Sabres (29-21-6)

6PM No local TV but it is on center ice

After losing the past two games to a combined score of 10-1 to sell out crowds at home, the Canes are at a low right now. This is a must win for the Canes in my opinion if they lose this one (*and the next game on Tuesday) they might as well put of the for sale sign and get ready for some trades. The canes are currently tied at 9th,5 points out of the playoffs, with Pittsburgh; while the Sabres fluctuate between 6-8th spots in the playoffs.

Leighton should probrably be in net for the canes since it's a back to back situation with Ward playing last night. EDIT: Ward in net againMiller will be in net for the Sabres.

I'm not too optimistic anymore and I kinda of want a fire sale so I'm predicting 3-1 Sabres.

EDIT:

Though I would like a nice Canes win here because the season isn't over and a win here brings us within 3 pts of the 8th spot, held by the Sabres as of this moment, and the Sabres don't have a game in hand.

    • Yuck.  I still kind of like Herbert but these playoff performances are rough....
    • I feel like this was the case with River and McDermott defenses as well, we just had the jimmies and the joes to overcome these deficiencies with all pro players at edge and linebacker positions.  Even then, was extremely frustrated in 2015 when we'd let team come back from 20+ pt deficits playing prevent only to barely win at the end. 
    • We need to move on soon and just use Bryce as a bridge to find our next guy. I'd like to see how this offense works with Canales hand picking his own guy. Bryce holds this offense back a lot considering you draft the first pick to carry your team and be your best player. We invested heavily for Bryce and need everything to go right just to have him look like a solid game manager sometimes. When he plays well he can look decent or mid, but when he plays bad he looks like a bottom 5 qb in league (backups included). It's not worth it, especially if we need to pay him soon, which means we have to skimp all over the roster. If the defenses don't hand it to us on a silver platter Atlanta style then we struggle big time. Defenses don't respect the offense at all. With Cam we could have the worst offensive talent and I'd still think we had a shot in any game we played. If Bryce is facing a 3rd and 10 I pretty much wave the white flag and don't think we can make that first down.
